Growing Information:
Cultivating the Moopark Apricot Tree is a rewarding journey, suitable for both novice and experienced gardeners. Here's what you need to know to nurture this remarkable tree:

Zone Compatibility: Moopark Apricot Trees thrive in USDA hardiness zones 5-9, making them adaptable to diverse climates.

Size: These trees typically reach heights of 12-15 feet, with a similar spread, creating a medium-sized presence in your garden or orchard.

Chill Hours: Moopark apricots require approximately 400-600 chill hours, which makes them suitable for regions with mild to moderate winters.

Planting: Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil for your Moopark Apricot Tree. Proper spacing and planting depth are essential for establishing a robust root system.

Pruning: Regular pruning during the dormant season helps shape the tree, improve airflow, and promote fruit development. Pruning also assists in maintaining the tree's structure.

Watering: Consistent moisture is vital, especially during the growing season. Deep watering at the root zone encourages vigorous growth and a bountiful harvest. We recommend a minimum 2 gallons of water every single day for the first 3-4 months. During the Summer trees need to be water early in the morning and in the afternoon, twice a day!

Bees and other pollinators play a crucial role in the pollination process, ensuring a fruitful crop.
